Leader of the Indigenous People
of Biafra, IPOB, has called for the boycott of the 2019 generalelections.

Kanu said that when he came out
from prison, President Muhammadu Buhari asked him what he wanted but he told
him that he wanted them to open Igwuocha (Port Harcourt) seaport, Warri
seaport, Calabar airport, and dredge River Niger.

Kanu also said he told Buhari
that he wanted 100 per cent resource control but never heard from the
presidency again.

In a live Facebook broadcast
aired by the Radio Biafra, Kanu said, “You own the power, you take it back, you
can boycott the election and decide what you want. Stand your ground, cripple
the 2019 election and see the effects in your life.”

He added , “No restructuring, no
elections in 2019, southern leaders.

“All we have asked for is our
freedom, but Igbo men, who claim they are politicians brought deaths to us. We
have said it time and time again, we want our freedom. Perhaps, some of you are
comfortable being slaves, we are not.

“Why do they want me dead?
Biafrians should ask them.

“When I came out of prison, I
ensured that the activities of Fulani herdsmen were reduced to the barest
minimum.

“At no time during the time of
Fulani herdsmen terrorism in our land did anybody call for help.

“South East Governors and Ohaneze
proscribed IPOB under serious pressure.

“They agreed that Nnamdi Kanu
should be killed. Not only me but my men, my father, brothers.

“I said to them, IPOB is here to
save Biafra but we are used to it. We are used to the hostility.

“Biafrans are very very special,
that is why they hate us.

“Our mothers were humiliated in
Owerri and what did Ohaneze do. They laughed at them and said, they went out to
protest the whereabouts of Nnamdi Kanu, so it serves them right.

“These are the people, who want
us to regard them as leaders.

“Igboland has been shrunk to just
five states. If you go to Opobo, if you speak, Ibo, somebody there will
understand you. We have indigenous Igbo speaking people in Kogi state but
nobody is talking about them. Ohaneze and Igbo leaders are merely interested in
furthering their own interests.

“Biafra is older than the zoo
called Nigeria.

“I have nothing against Igbo
leaders.

“The priorities of some of our
leaders are misplaced.

“They adopted Atiku but the same
set of people are castigating Obi.

“When I was released from prison,
on two occasions, I was approached and told that the president wants me to put
in writing, what my requests are asides from outright independence.

“I told them that I want them to
open Igwuocha seaport, Warri seaport, Calabar airport, dredge river Niger. I
told them I want 100 per cent resource control…I never heard from them again.

“Some of you have stopped talking
about Leah Sharibu.

“Some of you have stopped talking
about Dasuki, who has been granted bail by different courts of law.

“Nobody is bothered about the
wellbeing of the suffering people.

“Southern Kaduna is under siege
and all everyone is talking about how to vote.

“We are not going to vote,
because we are greater than that nonsense. IPOB will not vote and I will give
you reasons.
